Spiritual Warfare: A Battle Is Raging in the 'Prophetic Community' Over the 2020 Election

There is a battle waging between conservative Christian leaders and the self-proclaimed "prophets" who refuse to admit that their prophecies about the 2020 election were wrong. https://bit.ly/3nRv2Ld

In the months leading up to the 2020 presidential election, a variety of self-proclaimed “prophets” were nearly unanimous in their announcements that they had all heard from Heaven that Donald Trump would win the election and serve a second term as president.

Even though that did not happen, many of these “prophets” have vehemently refused to admit they were wrong and continue to insist that God will vindicate them by miraculously returning Trump to the White House.

Concerned about these false prophecies and the refusal of such “prophets” to acknowledge them, a collection of conservative Christian leaders recently signed on to a document laying out standards for the prophetic movement, declaring, among other things, that those who refuse to abide by such standards run the risk of being designated as “false prophets.”

It is no surprise that the “prophets” who have been most vocal in insisting that their false election prophecies will soon be proven true did not sign on to this “prophetic standards statement” and have, in fact, been quite vocal in criticizing it.

1. I'm sorry, "conservative Christian leaders" vs. "self-proclaimed prophets"?

Is there, like, a field guide to spotting how one is different from the other?

King James Bible
"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."

These prophets claim to follow Jesus.

proclaiming that rump won, etc. even though Pres. Biden won with decisive popular vote and electoral vote margins.

Cowards if they can't admit they were wrong in interpreting GOD's word or prophecies but what so surprising about this?

They have been grossly wrong in the past w/ their so called conversations w/ GOD and relaying to the rest of us what GOD wanted.

Anyone else laughing their ass off?


standards for the prophetic movement


Standards? In prophecy? Standards?

LMAO

Otherwise, they'll be called "false prophets".

Because, you know, nothing false about the prophecy business to begin with.

ROFLMAO damn near PIMP.

Without universal industry standards the prophetic movement could lose some of its vast reservoir of credibility.
